	I know $78M isn't enough to build a team in Toronto, but that's a lot of money to basically build up NFL interest in Canada.

	Believe me, you don't need to build up NFL interest here, but I agree that this is alot of money to play a couple of regular season games.

	i know the Bills will lose some games but ive heard that they are not in good shape financially. (at least from what ive read) so maybe this is not such a bad thing. Im not a bills fan or anything so correct me if im wrong.

	What they should do is just move it here permanently, American fans only have to dricve like an hour and a half and they would be in a MUCH MUCH MUCH larger City that could support the team easily.

	look..... im from buffalo, the buffalo Bills are not in grave peril or anything. we have people in buffalo willing to buy the team right now but wilson is a jerkoff and wont sell until he dies. hes too concerned about money that he wont sell for a minor discount to keep them in buffalo. they were worth somewhere in the 900 million range i think. what do you need 900 million for.. i mean.. come on. give me a break.... and then to go out and take 8 regular season games from us? if i was like the 49ers or the Raiders or some other team no 1 cares about okay. but to take a rivalry game?!?! are you out of you f***ing mind! the Dolphins game should be ours Sincerely, i hope you drop dead mr wilson

	nobody cares about the 49ers or Raiders? well my friend you just met one person who cares about the Raiders, we are one of the best fan bases in the NFL and the fact that our team has absolutely sucked lately (the 06 team with Walter and Moss was probably one of the worst in NFL history) is truly amazing, to be a fan of a team that has been so bad lately shows how true of a fan we really are.

	nobody cares about the 49ers or Raiders? not all Bills fans feel that way.. i actually grew up a raiders fan because of bo jackson.. however i stopped watching football then when i started to watch it again bills were my team (home town and all) sux for me to because i was never really a football fan during the SB years .. yeah i watched the SB but didnt get to enjoy the regular season and what a great team they were.. i only have memories starting from the damn flutie/johnson crap

	I am sure all he meant was that if they moved the 49ers or Oakland vs. Bills game to Toronto the Bills fans would not care as much as their seeing their biggest rival, the Dolphins. It wasn't a knock on SF or Oakland or their fans.
